A Call for Ideas
I'm doing fine with my teaching right now, but if anyone knows any excellent song lyrics, short poems, jokes, idioms, or simple and interesting topics that you think would interest a Chinese woman coming to the US in July, please share. For example, one of the tongue twisters we went over recently: The cat crept into the crypt, crapped and crept out. A real challenge for her and funny to hear her say.
